That wasn't a spat in IT admin terms.
Just a mild teddy out the pram moment between 2 folk that operate in different perversions who have common knowledge and slightly different prespectives on the same theme.
No admin passwords were changed or MAC address banned from accessing the network. So it was an amusing teddy bear chuckling session nothing more.
A real spat involves tech libary CD's getting used as lethal throwing weapons and server room emergency pocket air bottles getting inserted where the sun doesn't shine.
